Hey y'all, welcome to Biscuits and Jam from Southern Living. I'm your host, Sid Evans.

And today I'm talking with an artist I've admired for a long time, one who also happens to be a very talented podcast host.

Maggie Rose was born and raised in Potomac, Maryland, where she grew up eating blue crabs,

attending Catholic school, and singing solos in front of her church's congregation.

A self-described black sheep of the family, she headed to Clemson University in South Carolina

before leaving school early to move to Nashville for a career in music.

But it was her family support that gave her the courage to make it in a very tough business,

especially early on, and it eventually paid off in a career that's earned her a Grammy nomination,

a loyal fan base, and more than a hundred appearances at the Grand Ole Opry.

Her podcast, Salute the Songbird,

started during the pandemic, and it's become a powerful vehicle for candid conversations with

other female musicians about their experiences and challenges in the music business. We'll talk about

all that, plus what it's like being a new mom, her Grammy-nominated album, No One Gets Out Alive, what it meant to perform recently in Asheville, North Carolina, and her longtime love for old bass seasoning, all in this week's Biscuits and Jam.

Well, and I love yours. And it's so funny to talk to someone whose work I've followed and we've interviewed a number of the same people.

Oh, I think I've used your podcast as source material for sure to study up on some of my guests. Yeah.

And likewise, you've always got a really unique take on things anyway it's great to have you on here thank you

i think the same about you it's nice to have a conversation with a fellow artist for that podcast and

they can go wherever and i'm ready to let the audience and the guests kind of take it where it needs to go.

Yeah.

Well, there aren't many people doing what you're doing.

In fact, I can't think of anyone off the top of my head,
